• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Hon. Speaker, allow me to thank the Ambassador and congratulate, especially, Amb. Daniel Wambura who is to be posted to Bujumbura, Burundi. I do hope that all these Ambassadors will be prepared before and after they go to their respective countries to uplift the face of Kenya out there so that we are able to keep together our image. I bring this also because today is my birthday and again, what is happening in the United States of America (USA) where we are seeing a woman becoming a Vice President. This is huge for the women of this country. I ... view

• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support this very critical Motion. I thank Hon. Wamaua for bringing this Motion to Parliament. It urges the Government yet it is a very serious and important matter about keeping a database of citizens. As I support, I wish to bring to the attention of the House and the nation that the global economy is going digital. Our Kenyan administrative system is going digital. Therefore, in a digital The electronic version of the Official Hansard Report is for information purposesonly. A certified version of this Report can be obtained from the ... view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: economy, it is still unfortunate that we have to discuss the very fundamental rights that our children should enjoy right from birth in terms of registration. She has touched on the requirements of the NEMIS and the fact that in our education system, no child is allowed to sit for examinations without a birth certificate. I support NEMIS in the Ministry of Education because of a number of facts that have emerged in the education sector. First, the country is unable to plan in advance for capitation and funding for the education of our children. It is essential that even ... view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker, for the opportunity to contribute to this Motion. From the outset, I support it. Yesterday, in the House, we looked at the review of the Sessional Paper on the National Policy on Gender and Development, after the first framework in 2000. A key concern was how we would want to ensure that we do not have any context in which there would be a disadvantage to any of the Kenyans whether they are boys, girls, women or men because of some perceptions or limitations that accrue from culture. As I support this Motion, I ... view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: like to urge that we ensure that this is implemented. If we can get it to be done digitally, it should not be that difficult to do it at the time of birth. This will ensure that we have a mechanism of protecting the interests of the children by ensuring that they are registered at the time of their birth regardless of the status of their mothers at that particular time. As I conclude, from the contributions we had yesterday on the National Policy on Gender and Development, I still come to the issue where we would want to see ... view

• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: Thank you, Hon. Temporary Deputy Speaker. I rise to support the Report by the Departmental Committee on Administration and National Security. I join everyone in congratulating the Chair for being one of the most dedicated chairs in this House. The Report that you have tabled is extremely detailed and convincing. When we talk of the police as the frontline officers during this period of COVID-19, we should reflect and go down memory lane to when the regulations were pronounced in this country. New regulations in any country will always face resistance. There is the social distancing, lack of use of ... view
• 5 Nov 2020 in National Assembly: particular law. You can see the constraints of the Inspector-General. It is not possible to confine criminals and arrest them in the existing police cells at the police stations with the current nature of infrastructure. The Report is timely. It needs to be given attention. We ask ourselves many questions. The security apparatus of this country always receives a huge chunk of funding in the budget. Where is this money spent if we do not spend it on expanding the police stations for our own security? Even the cells and prisons in this country should be decent and habitable enough ... view
